HTC banking on Wildfire to boost smartphone shipments

HTC is hoping that Wildfire release in the coming days will be the main driver of its smartphone shipments this year. HTC is also going to partner with foreign telecom companies to promote the smartphone model in Asian-Pacific countries.

HTC foresees the middle-end smartphone to sharply boost its overall shipment starting this year, according to HTC`s Asia-Pacific region vice president Jack Tong.
